A Hidden Gem in Hiroshima! Savor the Exquisite Anago Ramen at Menya Jifu

Rising Star of Hiroshima Ramen, with Anago Flavor at its Core

Nestled in Fuchu Town, Aki District, Hiroshima, 'Menya Jifu' pursues a unique taste in the competitive ramen landscape of Hiroshima. Its signature dish, Anago Ramen, is an unparalleled bowl that captivates ramen enthusiasts from both the local area and afar.

The Harmony of Aroma and Umami: The Attraction of Anago Ramen

The defining feature of Anago Ramen is its aromatic and deep umami flavor. Distinct from conventional salt ramen, the robust soup highlights the anago flavor, creating an unmatched umami and aroma. This is the result of expertly blending anago broth with a tonkotsu soy sauce base, a product of the owner's trial and error.

Attention to Detail in Every Bowl

The noodles are straight and thin, common in Hiroshima, yet it's said that curled noodles pair well with the broth, adding a new layer of enjoyment. Additionally, anago bone is placed atop the noodles, asserting its unique character visually.

With a calm interior, the shop has 5 counter seats and 2 tables. Notably, it is operated solely by female staff, fostering an inviting atmosphere where female customers can easily dine alone.
